Client / Server Technology: Matthew Anthony S. Salvacion

Client/server technology partitions tasks between service providers (servers) and service requesters (clients). Servers operate on separate hardware from clients and share their resources. Clients do not share resources but request services from servers. Common examples include email, web access, and database queries, where a client program makes a request to a server program. The client/server model has become central to network computing, with many business applications using this architecture.

Client Server Technology


Client-server computing or networking is a

distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or work loads between service providers (servers) and service requesters, called clients.
Often clients and servers operate over a

computer network on separate hardware


A server is a high-performance host that is a

registering unit and shares its resources with clients.

Client Server Technology


A client does not share any of its resources, but requests a server's content or service function.
Client-server describes the relationship between two computer programs in which one program, the client program, makes a service request to another, the

server program.
Standard networked functions such as email exchange, web access and database access, are based on the client-server model.

Client Server Technology


The client-server model has become one of the

central ideas of network computing.


Many business applications being written today use the client-server model. Each instance of the client software can send data requests to one or more connected servers. In turn, the servers can accept these requests,

process them, and return information to the client.

This type of architecture is sometimes referred to as two-tier. It allows devices to share files and resources.

The interaction between client and server is often described using sequence diagrams. Sequence diagrams are standardized in the Unified Modeling Language.
